Re-Birth

A Tanka on When Painting and Words Combine

“I believe in the power of the imagination to remake the world, to release the truth within us, to hold back the night, to transcend death, to charm motorways, to ingratiate ourselves with birds, to enlist the confidences of madmen.” ― J.G. Ballard

end journey begins sun shine on, penetrate hope amidst life ‘n death leaf kisses Tithonus’s feet pray evergreen in birth next

Note: Who wants to bid adieu to this beautiful world? yet it’s a reality we cannot avoid.

We pray for miracles and immortality. There is no reason to think a leaf fallen does not have the power to pray to change its destiny, and so it does.Being born evergreen, is foliage’s dream!
